“Many years ago, I exchanged texts with a friend who is now using them to craft a bogus lawsuit. There is absolutely no coincidence to the timing of her claims and we will defend them vigorously in court.”

Employment Attorney Dan Gilleon says the sexual harassment allegations could be slightly suspicious because they were not included in the original complain.

“When I first look at this, I go, ‘OK, this is a breach-of-contract case,’ ” Gilleon explained. “This is their way of saying: ‘You should have settled with this because now we’re going to embarrass you.’ ”
